AH-Software has uploaded two demo songs for her and you can listen to them below:

Her optimal tempo would be between 70-170 while her optimal range would be from E2-G4.

With the first-press version of the software a song CD consisting of two original AHS songs “Tsubasa” and “ABBEY FLY” (with karaoke tracks) will be bundled with the package and the VSQ files for these songs will be included in the installation CD as well.

Nekomura Iroha is scheduled to be released on October 22nd 2010 at a price of 15,750 yen (tax included).

It’s been made known that the popular Kagamine Len song “Servant of Evil”, which has over two million views on Nico Nico Douga, will be serialized in the monthly issue of “Comic Rush” magazine.“Servant of Evil” (or Aku no Meshitsukai), which originated as a Kagamine Len song created by AkunoP using both Kagamine Vocaloid software, is the sequel to Kagamine Rin’s “Daughter of Evil” (Aku no Musume) made also by the same producer. With the various illustrations on Piapro and attention brought about by viewers on NND the song has since surpassed two million views, making it a remarkable achievement on its own.The manga serialization will begin in the November issue of Comic Rush (release date – September 25th 2010) with Nekoyama Miyao (猫山宮緒) doing the illustrations. A bonus DVD containing the songs “Daughter of Evil” and “Servant of Evil” will also be included in the November issue as well.
